Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu in his address to the Jewish Federations of North America General Assembly in the USA spoke of the possibility of Israel taking unilateral steps in Yehuda and Shomron as a result of the breakdown in the dialogue between Israel and the PA (Palestinian Authority). Bennett, who heads the Bayit Leumi party added “The enemy must be punished and not rewarded”.
Bennett added the only unilateral step that should be taken in annexing all of Yehuda and Shomron as an integral part of the State of Israel.
Other person affiliated with the political right-wing add Israel must learn the lesson of the painful unilateral actions taken in 2005, namely the uprooting of Gaza’s Jewish community. This resulted in an increase in rocket fire and cross-border terrorism from Gaza to southern Israel. They warn the current administration against adopting such a policy with the PA (Palestinian Authority) in Yehuda and Shomron.

move all the pals to Syria-Iraq and let them enjoy real Islamic freedom too….
The only question I have is the reference to a “breakdown in dialogue.” When was there ever a dialogue with the Arabs? It’s been nothing but bombs, knives, and lethal cars since Oslo.
I agree annexation is a good idea. But the timing is not.
